Welcome to the Gengda Wolong Panda Center! It is located in the Gengda Xingfu Valley, the heart of the Wolong Nature Reserve, and home to wild Giant Pandas. Its mountains serve as a beautiful backdrop for the reserve.

You’re watching the Dragon Pond yard cam, named in honor of Longtancun, one of the many villages devastated in a 2008 earthquake. The Panda Center’s years of preparation ensure that every new habitat in the reserve provides a healthy, natural environment for the pandas. Reforestation and bamboo planting have been successful and will continue in the future.

Our partners, Pandas International, are online to answer questions so please post them in the comments below.
